A 21-member General Committee (GC) governs ESDO. The GC selects a seven-member Executive Committee (EC). The EC provides policy guidelines to the organization. The Member Secretary of the EC, designated as Executive Director (ED), oversees the programs and activities and provides required guidance to the staff members to carry out the day-to-day activities to achieve individual program objectives and accomplish ESDO's mission and vision as a whole. The Executive Director monitors the program implementation, outcomes, and issues through the organization's established result-based Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability, and Learning (MEAL) system, meetings with different levels of staff, and direct visits to program participants in the field. The Executive Committee Meeting reports and discusses the progress of project implementation, outcomes, and issues from the previous year. The EC makes decisions and provides future strategic directions to the ED. The Executive Director, through his staff, is responsible for implementing the decisions and directives of the Executive Committee at both the organizational and field levels. Thus, the organization maintains a two-way decision-making and governing process, bottom to top and top to bottom. Each financial year, the organization organizes the Annual General Meeting (AGM), inviting all members of the General Governing Body, Executive Committee, and key staff members to attend. The AGM participants present, discuss, and review all the achievements, outcomes, and emerging issues from the previous year, as well as the decisions made at the EC meeting, before the GC members finally approve them. The AGM also reviews the yearly budget and approves it for next year. This ensures the organization's governance and accountability.
